Suddenly thinking of something, Da'an put down the book and stood up, quickly came to the bed and opened the pillow.
Da'an was also shocked when he saw the pair of silk flowers lying there quietly under the pillow.
"Is it possible that this girl, Xiaohua, doesn't like flowers?"
"Didn't you see it when you made the bed?"
"This flower has been here for more than ten days. Why don't you take it over?"
Da'an stood beside the bed, holding the pair of silk flowers in his hand, his face full of doubts.
At this moment, the door behind him suddenly creaked and was pushed open again, and Xiaohua came back again.
Daan turned around and saw Xiaohua, a hint of surprise and excitement flashed in his eyes.
"Didn't you go to bed?" he asked.
Xiao Hua said: "What? I left my sewing dustpan here. I'll come back to get it..."
Following the guidance of her fingers, Daan saw a sewing dustpan placed on the stool beside the bed.
Earlier, he was reading at the desk, and this girl was sitting here doing needlework.
Quiet and quiet, without any sense of presence.
"Oh, then come and get it." Da'an said.
Xiaohua nodded, walked over, and picked up the dustpan.
When she turned around and passed him, she caught a glimpse of the pair of silk flowers he was holding in his hand from the corner of her eye, and she paused.
My heart twitched inexplicably again, I bit my lip, turned around and was about to run out of the house.
The arm was suddenly grabbed by a force.
Turning around, I saw it was Daan.
"Brother Da'an, what's wrong?" Xiaohua asked.
Da'an said: "There is also this thing, you can take it too."
The flowers in her hand were thrown into the dustpan she was holding.
Xiaohua was shocked, her mind suddenly went blank.
"Brother Da'an, is this...?" she asked blankly.
Da'an was a little embarrassed, turned away and said, "It's really hard for you to take care of my food and daily life. It's the Chinese New Year. You can take this flower and wear it!"
After saying this, he let go of her arm and quickly returned to the desk.
He sat down and covered his face with the book again.
On the other side of the bed, Xiaohua was also dumbfounded. Looking at the pair of silk flowers in the dustpan, her brain was running out of energy.
She didn't know how she got out of the house, nor how she got back to her house.
I only know that I am like a fool, sitting on the bed, putting down the curtain, holding the pair of silk flowers in my palms, looking at it, smiling, and enjoying myself...
It wasn't until the deafening sound of firecrackers came from the front yard again, and villages all over the place opened their doors one after another, that Xiaohua finally came back to her senses.
"After working on it for a long time, it turns out that Brother Da'an bought this flower as a gift to me?"
"No wonder he put it under the pillow and put it in the clothes cabinet, places where I can often see it..."
"Could it be that he was embarrassed to say it, so he put it in a conspicuous place, so that I could see it and ask him for it myself?"
"Oh, brother Da'an really doesn't understand girls very well."
"Even if I really like this flower, I would be too embarrassed to ask him for it. I hate it, hate it, hate it!"
Xiaohua sat on the bed, holding the pair of silk flowers that she never got tired of in her hands, talking to herself for a while, and giggling for a while.
All the speculations and hesitations in my heart during this period of time disappeared without a trace at this moment.
What's left is only excitement and joy, as well as the pounding feeling of a girl of this age.
This is her secret!
"Xiaohua, are you in the house?"
At the same time as the shout came, Xiaoduo Fengfenghuohuo ran in from outside the house.
Xiaohua quickly hid the pair of silk flowers under the pillow, "Here you are, what's going on?"
She responded, lifted the curtain and stuck her head out.
Xiao Duo said: "Third Aunt is going to cook dumplings for the New Year's Eve. Let's go and help together."
Hearing the dumplings being cooked, Xiaohua hurriedly got out of bed, "Okay, let's go there together."
With excitement, Xiaohua followed Xiaoduo to the backyard kitchen to cook dumplings.
Having grown so big, including this year, it is already my thirtieth year to celebrate New Year’s Eve.
This year's New Year's Eve was the happiest. The dumpling filling was obviously spicy beef filling, but when it was eaten in Xiaohua's mouth, it felt like it was watered with honey.
Some are happy and some are sad.
Old house.
Zhao Liuer, Li Xiuxin and Cao Bamei's three sisters-in-law were also busy cooking dumplings in the kitchen.
Yang Yongjin and Yang Yongzhi, who were playing cards, also came back. They set off firecrackers to open the door, and then everyone came to the canteen to eat dumplings together.
After eating the dumplings, Yang Yongjin told Cao Bamei and went to the village to find Baozhu Yuzhu and they went to draw cards.
They grew up rolling together in mud and water since they were young, and later worked together in the transportation team.
During this period, Yang Ruoqing sent Yang Yongjin to the restaurant for training.
However, the relationship between brothers Yang Yongjin and Baozhu Yuzhu has never diminished.
So, during the twelfth lunar month, Baozhu and the others came over to play, and they helped Yang Yongjin and Cao Bamei take a night off.
Cao Bamei asked Yang Yongjin to approve Yang Yongjin to go out and play cards with them all night on New Year's Eve. So, just after finishing the dumplings, Yang Yongjin threw down the bowl and chopsticks and went out burping.
"Brother Yongzhi, Hong'er is still sleeping alone in the house. When you are full, go back and stay with the child. I will stay and put away the dishes and chopsticks and then go back to the house."
Zhao Liuer said to Yang Yongzhi.
Yang Yongzhi nodded, stood up and left the canteen.
Zhao Liu'er said to Li Xiuxin again: "Sister-in-law, it seems that eldest brother drank a little too much tonight. Don't stay here anymore. Go back to the house and take care of eldest brother."
Li Xiuxin glanced at the scattered bowls and chopsticks on the table and said, "It's okay. I'll pack these away before I leave."
Cao Bamei came over from the kitchen next door and heard the words: "Sister-in-law, it's enough for me and my three younger siblings to be here. You go back to the house to take care of your elder brother first. He drank so much wine that he won't be able to keep it all. He will vomit later at night. You can do it later." Bring more hot water back for later use."
Li Xiu thought about it and felt that it made sense.
"Well, you two have to work hard on these pots and pans. I will wash all the pots and pans for tomorrow's three meals. You should also take a rest," she said.
Cao Bamei and Zhao Liuer looked at each other and both smiled.
"Sister-in-law, you are serious. This pot and bowl is nothing. We are a family." Cao Bamei said.
"Okay, no more words, it's getting late, you go to the front yard quickly." She said again.
Li Xiuxin nodded, then turned and left the dining hall.
In the dining hall, Cao Bamei and Zhao Liuer started to put away the dishes.
"Second sister-in-law, second brother won't be back all night?" Zhao Liu'er couldn't help but ask while washing up.
Cao Bamei nodded, "Yes, they made an appointment to play cards."
Zhao Liuer smiled and said: "Second sister-in-law, you are so kind to your second brother. If you let him stay overnight, aren't you afraid of sleeping with Xiuxiu for two nights?"
